Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi (2017)

  • Johnson, Rian, Popular
  • 2017, Rian Johnson, USA
  • 4 Comments

Both plot and action-heavy, this stands as a deceptively solid middle film of the new trilogy.

โญโญโญโญ

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Looper (2012)

  • Johnson, Rian
  • 2012, Rian Johnson, USA
  • 3 Comments

This stylish time travel sci-fi action drama is a treat for serious film enthusiasts who are also mental gymnasts.

Kid, The (1921)

  • Chaplin, Charles, Criterion Collection
  • 1921, charles chaplin, USA
  • 2 Comments

While not one of his best, Chaplinโ€™s modest first feature paved the way for greater exploits to come.

Ford v Ferrari (2019)

  • Others
  • 2019, James Mangold, USA
  • 9 Comments

4.5 stars

This is an absorbing, top-tier Hollywood car racing biopic that dazzles with its technical execution and features one of Christian Baleโ€™s finest performances.

Last Stand, The (2013)

  • Kim, Jee-woon
  • 2013, Kim, Jee-woon, USA
  • 1 Comment

A quite solid action-comedy with Schwarzenegger back in form and versatile Korean director Kim Jee-woon showing what he can do in Hollywood.

Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)

  • Popular
  • 2019, USA
  • 3 Comments

2.5 stars

It’s a very small step forward in the right direction, but this is still a mediocre โ€˜Terminatorโ€™ movie.

Shining, The (1980)

  • Kubrick, Stanley
  • 1980, Stanley Kubrick, UK, USA
  • 11 Comments

A masterpiece of baroque horror cinema that continues to haunt through tone, technique and characterisation.

Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

  • Criterion Collection, Kubrick, Stanley
  • 1999, Stanley Kubrick, UK, USA
  • 3 Comments

Kubrick’s final film is a calculated psychosexual trip filled with paranoia, moral depravity and sexual fantasies and excesses.

Barry Lyndon (1975)

  • Criterion Collection, Kubrick, Stanley
  • 1975, Stanley Kubrick, UK, USA
  • 9 Comments

Kubrickโ€™s understated and underrated costume-drama is, to me, his greatest accomplishment, and possibly the most beautiful period film ever made.

Clockwork Orange, A (1971)

  • Kubrick, Stanley
  • 1971, Stanley Kubrick, UK, USA
  • 11 Comments

Kubrick’s dystopian masterpiece frustrates, angers, provokes, and ultimately floors you in ways unlike that of other great films.
